* Rear-curtain sync is not available when [LIVE COMP] is selected (P. 47).
• The fastest shutter speed available when the fl ash fi res is 1/250 s. Bright backgrounds in
pictures taken with the fl ash may be overexposed.
• The fl ash sync speed for silent modes (P. 74), High Res Shot (P. 76), and focus
bracketing (P. 134) is 1/50 s. Setting [ISO] to a value over ISO 8000 when using an
option that requires the electronic shutter (for example, silent mode or focus bracketing)
sets the
fl ash sync speed to 1/20 s. The fl ash sync speed is also set to 1/20 s during ISO
bracketing (P. 133).
• Even the minimum available fl ash output may be too bright at short range. To prevent
overexposure in pictures taken at short range, select mode A or M and choose a smaller
aperture (higher f-number) or choose a lower setting for [ISO].
